Looking through the Helpdesk-l mailing list, it

are having a hard time finding the edit link at the top of the page,
although they can find the edit links for the sections. Should
something be done about this?
A solution I can think of, is that wikipedia leaves a cookie that says ¨this
person is not a competely and utter noob¨. If such a cookie does not exist
yet, a big fat, blinking (ok, maybe not blinking) box is displayed which
tells you how to stop being very lost. It would also contain a link to never
ever display this box again. A smart implementation would be to use this only
for Windows/Mac users coming on the page with either IE, Firefox or <Standard
Mac Browser>
The trigger to turn off the annoying feature would be to edit anything. :-)
